From: Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au>

linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org
Subject: [PATCH 2/5] /dev/vring: simple userspace-kernel ringbuffer interface.
virtio introduced a ring structure ABI for guest-host communications
(currently used by lguest and kvm). Using this same ABI, we can
create a nice fd version.
This is useful for efficiently passing packets to and from the tun,
for example.
